Farmland is a good investment … if you know the future.
If you had invested in a nice organic farm in Fukushima Pref. your investment is now worthless.
Considering Agenda 21 and the plans of Big Agribusiness you do not want to invest heavily in farmland at the wrong place.
Never put all your eggs in one basket (unless you exactly know the future).
Food, water, gold, silver and survival gear come first.
If you then can still afford a remote farm without going into debt, then farmland is indeed a good investment.
– The Smartest Investment Of The Decade (ZeroHedge, Nov 12, 2012):
Here’s something crazy to think about.
Roughly 200,000 people were born today. That’s net world population growth, births minus deaths.
Each one of them constitutes a new mouth to feed. And when they come of age, those 200,000 people will consume, conservatively, about 1,250 Calories per day. Collectively, that’s 91.25 billion Calories per year for the entire 200,000 people that were born today.
Where will they get that food from?
